Does this case replace the back cover of the S5, or do you put this on top of the original cover? I need to open the cover daily to replace battery.

It covers the whole back & side and is really easy to remove so it won't hinder the often changing of your battery

No it snaps over the phone but it is too small for the s5 heavy duty model (the dark maroon one)

Goes on over the attached back cover. It's very easy to remove for battery swaps.

This is a protective case that covers the back and edges completely. The case is easy to remove from the phone to access the battery cover.

Robert the existing case was already broken and I had to really work and pry off the case. I then placed my new case on the phone. I did not need to take the cover off yet. Sorry I couldn't be of any help.

No it doesn't replace your back cover of your phone, it just slips right on your phone. It's a nice snug fit.

Yes. If you notice, almost all of the one-star reviews here say the cover doesn't fit. I have a strong feeling that most if not all of them are people who are trying to put the phone in it with the original back cover still on. In other words, I strongly suspect they don't realize that the original back cover must be removed and is replaced by this case. If you remove all those reviews, the rest are very high ratings.

Go to hyperion's main site and see if they have one for your phone as this battery is an extended battery and they provide a new backcover specifically for the phone they advertise it for so if this back cover doesnt fit your phone then you wont have anything to hold the battery in place check in they site to see if they have ur phone

No, it does not. It also cannot be used with the stock back cover that originally came with the phone, but fits fine under the "official" expanded battery back cover.

It slips over the phone. I do not believe it is intended to be a replacement part of the battery cover. Hope that helps.

Yes! It is a case, not a battery cover or the back/flip cover that comes with the Note II. It wraps around the phone. So you would use the original back, without the flip cover, and put it right over the phone like any other silicone or hard plastic case. I have a Verizon Note II. I love love love this cover. I have dropped my phone quite a few times and it has protected it completely! Definitely a good purchase. Feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

The Case covers from top to bottom with the charging port and ear phone port cut out to fit the original OEM charger and earphones. The case has to be taken off completely to remove the battery cover and battery. Hope that ansers your question, which the way that you worded it, is a bit unclear what your question is.

Don't take that off. If your using the extended battery you do not use the back cover, just put the tpu over it and it will hold it in place. The cover is only if you want to use the stock battery or some other extended battery. :)

This replaces the original back glass. To install this, remove the screws from the bottom of the phone, and slide the old back glass "cover" off. This one slides in and replace the screws. The old broken back glass was discarded.

It's held on by the chrome siding of the phone on my white s5. I have a clear cover. You couldn't have a case already on it and fit it.

This cover does not "replace" the existing back cover. It is a clear cover that goes around the existing back of the device. Also, there is no cover on the front of the device, only sides and back are covered.

The on/off button on a S5 is on the top of the phone. The cover does not effect the operation of the phone in any way.

Actually the backplate is a skin type case in of itself. Because of its size they made a backplate/skin case to accomodate the battery. So its already a case. Kind of hard to explain but to answer your question there is no other case you can buy to fit over it except the one they include. Now I can tell you having used this battery for 5 months or so that it makes the phone bulky and heavy but it also triples your battery easily. I usually go 2-3 days between charges but even with super heavy use it should have no problem lasting a day. Hope this helps!

yes, the battery and the back case cover fits perfectly. Be careful not to drop it because the case breaks easily and it's hard to find a phone case to fit over the extended life battery and back
